Start point TBF: will be close to a central City of London tube
In 47AD the Roman Empire built a timber bridge across the Thames - and founded our modern-day capital. This history wall will explore the capital's most interesting and significant Roman sites along with the thrilling stories that came out of Rome's 400-year occupation of Britannia, including:
- The newest public section of Rome's most impressive engineering feat - the London Wall
- Boudicca's brutal assault on the city which nearly caused Nero to withdraw troops which left its mark 2000 years on...
- The blood-soaked amphitheatre which lay hidden until the 1980s
- The rediscovery of Londinium's long-lost Roman fort
- Rome's maverick 'pirate king' who took over and ruled Britannia
All walks are c.100 minutes long and largely on the flat.
